Jun 6, 2014 · English - US. Jun 6, 2014. #3. Exactly. Labor is the whole process of the body getting the baby in position to be born and pushing the baby out. This can take days. Delivery is the part when the baby is actually coming out. Further, labor refers to what the mother's body is doing and delivery can also refer to what the doctor or midwife is doing.
Feb 15, 2011 · Senior Member. USA. American English. Feb 15, 2011. #4. Ha, I just realized you have two #1s. The grammatical support (in non-technical terms) for "delivering" in your sentence is that "commit to" requires a noun, so "delivering" is used. If you used "commit to deliver," the "to" would be pulled to the "deliver" to make an infinitive (verb). J.
Apr 5, 2006 · If a person has to enter the Zip Code by hand (or worse, enter the city and state by hand to look up the Zip Code) it can add a day or two to delivery time. The PO would prefer ALL CAPS (whether typed or hand-written), but realizes that there would be a lot of resistance to this, as people much prefer the usual combination of upper and lower-case letters.
Sep 16, 2020 · I think I would prefer "of" with "within". It might also be worth noting that "within" usually works in both directions. If you have to do something within five days of October 10, then doing it on either October 5 or October 15 would be acceptable, but doing it on October 4 or October 16 would not. However, it is also common to use "within ...
Jun 9, 2009 · English--U.S. Jun 10, 2009. #2. I am not sure if the phrase "to have experience of" is commonly used. "In" and "with" are more frequently used with it. I would think that to have experience in something refers to a particular field. For example, "I have a lot of experience in sales and marketing" or "I have experience in teaching."
Aug 29, 2008 · Newport News, Virginia. English -USA. May 6, 2016. #7. You could also use: vittorina said: pagamento del 10% ad avviso di merce pronta. "A payment of 10 percent is due when your order is ready to be shipped." It is not an exact, literal translation but it is a common way of saying it in English.
Mar 28, 2018 · Mar 28, 2018. #3. PaulQ said: BE: The substitute teacher would give will take our English class for us today. It is not idiomatic "to give" a class. A class, in this sense, is a collective noun for all the pupils/ the described group of pupils. "Our class went to the zoo."
Jul 15, 2009 · for the sentence "I can deliver the photos this afternoon", why I don't need to add the preposition "in" in front of this afternoon, so the new sentence would be " I can deliver the photos in this afternoon". Is the same rule applied to this morning/afternoon, next week? Thank you.
Sep 6, 2012 · The English is good in terms of grammar and idiom but the message does not exactly make sense, at least in isolation. I recommend one of the following. “The schedule may be subject to change" (We can assume that this is owing to 'circumstances') or. “The schedule may be subject to change under the following circumstances. 1. If it is ...
Feb 9, 2006 · New Member. Alden, NY. English/USA. Feb 9, 2006. #3. yeah in training not on. If you were on traning, you would be using the word on as expressing an action, like you were literally on training like "that boy is on drugs" but if we are involved in something, or doing something it would be in "i am in bed" "i am in training". N.
